The Stafford Sheriff’s Office says a county woman has been charged after a pursuit that started in Stafford and ended in Prince William County.   Stafford Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Sarah Maroney said about 2pm on Wednesday,  Deputy K.L. Warnick attempted to stop a vehicle on Interstate 95
as part of an investigation by the Stafford County Sheriff’s Office Special Investigations Unit.

Authorities say the driver kept going north, finally exiting the interstate at the Joplin Road exit.   The driver stopped in the 1800 block of Chestnut Drive and tried to run. She was arrested a short time later.  Maroney said drugs and an undisclosed amount of money were found in the vehicle.

28-year old Schascle Alston of Fredericksburg was arrested.  It was later learned, when Alston fled from the vehicle it had struck a power truck which had the  bucket extended in the air with an employee inside. The employee was not injured.  Alston is charged with speed to elude, possession with intent to distribute schedule I/II, possession of a controlled substance, reckless driving, and obstruction of justice. She was held at the Rappahannock Regional Jail without bond.
